Hey all, 

    Just in case you are looking for the grid or for
multipliers etc... I will be QRV on 6 meters in EN55
(Rhinelander, WI...Oneida County).  I am not really
running the contest, but I wil be looking for contacts
for this grid square in any case (running and
S&P)....Hope to at least hear the Eau Claire
Locals...I think they need this square.  Anyhoo, I
didn't realize it was a contest weekend until I had
already planned what I was bringing..hence nothing
above 50 Mhz (plus the cushcraft A3 and the modded 5
el 6meter are a lot of aluminum up on a portable
tiltup...not sure if I could stack anything else up on
it.)  I am going to see what there is in HF
also...trying to play with the 101ZD and get used to
it...plus trying to get a 160 meter wire dipole tuned
in. But I will have 25 watts on 50 Mhz into a modified
5 el. cushcraft.  (I may even put the 160 meter wire
on 6 with a tuner if I can figure out where to string
it...*L*)  Not sure on the elevation here, but it is
located at my parents house right next to the lake
(about 50 feet from the H2O).  I have the keyer...so
if I can't get ya on phone, but I know you are there,
I have that option.  I need the practice anyhow. 

    So anyhow, look my way in EN55, and maybe we'll
hook up a Q.  See Ya....73.  

              Dave...N9TTX

P.S.  Hey Bill (K0AWU), maybe we can make a 6 meter
Q...*LOL*...someday we'll get a full boat in one grid square.
